Description

Circa 1915 Sam Crawford Single Signed Baseball. A
devastating combination of power and speed elevated "Wahoo Sam" to
the top of the career charts for triples with a total of 309,
fourteen better than his closest rival and Hall of Fame teammate Ty
Cobb. Much like Gehrig's experience with Ruth, Crawford often found
himself in the shadow of the more famous Tiger, and his single
signed baseballs are rarely seen within the hobby. Of the thin
supply, only a tiny handful date to the pre-war era as does this
gorgeous Official American League ball in the style used from 1910
to 1925. The gorgeously applied black fountain pen side panel
signature rates a stunning 10/10, a simply unimprovable example
with only a single pinprick to the leather at the letter "m" that
is really too minor for mention. Scattered toning is completely
uniform on the panel housing the signature, making for an ideal
display. Arguably the finest Crawford single in the hobby. LOA
from James Spence Authentication.
